Yes, but how are we to know if you have more than two?

And would you go so far as to tell us which other profile is your other one?

• People with both a submissive and a dominant profile.  I used to wonder why they didn't just have one switch profile, but it was explained to Me that some of them cannot be dominant and submissive with the same person, so they are seeking two different people.  Okay, but I think they should be upfront about it in the profile and/or letter of introduction rather than catching the other person off-guard when they come across the other profile (which I invariably will because I always check for this when considering any new submissive). 
  
• People who are testing other people.  A Domme I know created another fictitious Domme profile to test the loyalty of a submissive male she was considering.  Unfortunately, he flunked the test.
  
• People who have annoyed everyone in town and gotten blocked under the one profile, so they set up another.  Eventually, that one gets blocked, too, but it buys them some time.
  
• People who are part of a couple and have an individual and couple profile.  This one makes perfect sense to Me as long as they explain the situation in each profile. 
  
• Curiousity.  They want to see the world from a different perspective.
  
• Men looking for cyber sex.  They create a fictitious female profile in the hopes that they can get someone to cyber with them, since females are more in demand.  Some are so desperate that they're straight and will even cyber with another straight male, while pretending they are a female.

I have run into people that have 5 or more profiles on CM.  I just assume the ones that go that far to do that kind of thing are either playing games, checking on someone behind that person's back, have been turned down by someone and are trying a different tactic, or they are trying to appeal to as many people as possible.  Many of the ones that are doing that kind of thing are pretty crafty as well.  They don't want to be caught, and will delete the old one and change to a new profile when they need to.

I have also noticed that someone I used to chat with in one of the rooms, suddenly has 2 profiles with the same picture on each.  He states he is a Dominant on one of them, and the on other he states he is a submissive...lol.  Why can't he just state he is a switch on one profile?  It's beyond me, but apparently people do that. 

How I feel about that kind of thing I made very clear in my journal.  I think many of them are people to be a little wary of.
